Garden Unit & Kneafsey

  • Tack Room 1227 West 18th Street Chicago, IL, 60608 United States (map)

Kneafsey (pronounced "neef-see") is the solo project of Jimmy Drenovsky. Jimmy has been writing music for most of his life, with his output up until now coming exclusively from the band he co-founded in 2016, Motel Breakfast. While his work in Motel Breakfast focuses on full band compositions, Kneafsey songs draw more influence from the understated, lyric-forward singer-songwriter world, inspired by artists such as John Moreland, Sufjan Stevens, and John Prine. Kneafsey's debut album, due out sometime in 2024, will compile a back catalogue of songs about love, loss, and friendships written over the past 7 years.

Garden Unit blends atmospheric, electronic textures to enhance the emotions behind short, simple singer-songwriter songs. Intricate electric guitar and layered vocals define the root of Garden Unit’s sound. The debut EP, Garden Unit (Windows), released September 1, 2023. Self-recorded and produced by Drue deVente, the EP shares an intimate progression of emotions through life’s changes, as experienced in basements and ground-level windows.
